Understanding MWPL and the table
- MWPL is the maximum aggregate open interest permitted in a stock's derivatives.
- A stock enters the F&O ban when aggregate open interest exceeds 95% of MWPL; while it is in ban, participants may only reduce existing positions.
- Normal trading resumes when aggregate open interest falls to 80% of MWPL or below.
- T-1 is the latest completed trading session, T-2 is the preceding completed session, and Change (pp) is T-1 MWPL utilisation minus T-2 MWPL utilisation in percentage points.
How might Bandhan Bank's interim CFO appointment influence investor sentiment and derivative positioning ahead of its potential F&O ban?
What impact could LIC Housing Finance's rapid 9.71 percentage point rise in MWPL utilisation have on liquidity dynamics if it crosses the 95% threshold?
Will the recent AGM approvals for higher borrowing limits at Inox Wind drive further speculative activity that pushes its MWPL utilisation back toward ban levels?
